By far the worst pizza Ive ever tried to eat!!! Called in an order for takeout this evening and was told to pick it up at the bar instead of the usual pizza shack. When we arrived for pick-up, the bar was packed given that it was a Saturday night. It took close to fifteen minutes to even get our pizza after experiencing a complete lack of customer service from a female that was either a host or server. She was clearly in the wrong industry given her personality and abrasiveness. We took our pizza home and unsuccessfully attempted to ingest the soggy, overly saturated sponge that we actually had to pay money for. After throwing it out we then called Chanellos to rescue dinner for us. Wish we had called them in the first place but wont be making that mistake again.

After being seated 30 minutes after our reservation was made for and not offered anything we then waited for over an hour for spaghetti and ravioli. Not the waitresses fault, they were just busy. But most restaurants would offer something like a free app or a glass of wine, something. Instead, we were given a bill higher than we expected because of the type of sauce I choose which I was not told about. It was not a big deal since it was only $2 difference, but it was the principle of the whole thing. Not to mention the food was just ok. There are a lot of other really good restaurants in the area to choose from. If you cant handle the reservations, then dont take them.

Took our family to Zia Maries for dinner on a Sunday after reading only a few reviews. Wish I had continued reading more reviews and went elsewhere!! Did not meet any of our expectations. Restaurant is very small, cramped seating and extremely noisy! Waited well over an hour for our food, which was cold, bland, over-priced, and our meals came "one at a time." Waitress & service was non-existent. Definitely wont go back. Reviews were far from the truth. Would rather stay home for dinner. Certainly no comparison to Olive Garden!! Have to give it one star so it will post my review!

Zias provides authentic italian meals without charging you ridiculous prices. The atmosphere is warm with conversation buzzing throughout the dining room almost every night. They offer a variety of dishes with specials on the weekends. Dont eat too much bread, which is baked in house and delicious, you will leave this place satisfied and stuffed! My husband and I return regularly as Zia Maries is one of our local staples.

We went about half an hour after they opened and they refused to seat us because of reservations that were and hour and a half away! The hostess didnt even seems sorry just told us we couldnt eat their. You dont ever turn service away. So we went to Manninos Italian Bistro down the road and it was a million times better! Honestly the best Italian food Ive ever had!!! Go there instead you wont be disappointed!

Love zias food and go in regularly but the wait staff is horrible. We just went 3/16 @ 530 sitting in the last booth closest to the bathrooms and had a waitress walk past us multiple times without saying a single word to us and helping both tables surrounding us at least 3 times each still without even acknowledging us. We eventually left because we were so tired of waiting and being ignored.

Went on a Tuesday evening and only people there besides 3 other tables. One waitress... so it took quite awhile to even place our order. But the food was delicious! Loved the garlic goat cheese appetizer.. and then had the eggplant parmesan for dinner. I would definitely go back again. Just prepare to not be in a rush. . 2 hours to have dinner on a Tuesday night when it wasnt busy.

Place was ok , but noisy as hell.and zero Blacks. No menu,,,you have to read off a stupid blackboard barely legible. Too damn White, and prices too damn high...service was so slow,,,,my skin was too dark I guess. The Waitress named Victoria,,,...absolute worst. Vile specimen of a subhuman. She needs to expire ASAP.

Food is all on point! I personally love the quaintness of the menu on the chalkboards but I guess thats not for everyone. Waitstaff is very well versed at the menu if you need guidance. It does tend to get crowded on weekends and can be a little loud due to the size and open concept but foods worth the wait!

What impressed me from the beginning was the menu. It doesnt change. They know how to make good food and stick to it. I took some clients and my wife here for a closing dinner and had a great time. Decent price too. God job Zia Marie Restaurant. Try the Portobello mushrooms.

Annie Barnette

The pizzas we had were delicious. Though I personally would have preferred a little more basil on the Margarita pizza, it was still fresh and yummy. My husband loved his supreme pizza and the kids their cheese. It is a hidden cute little Italian eatery just off the beach.

The bread in the beginning was very good. Ambience was nice. Veal Marsala did not contain much veal at all. The service was not very friendly or available even when we were the only ones there. Could have been much better, this place has potential but debating going back.

George Mack

We have eaten here often and have NEVER had a bad meal. You have to try the veal saltimboca and the roasted garlic appetizer. Its better on a week night when it is not as crowded as the room tends to be noisy. But that is the only negative on this place.

Whit Alley

The food here is decent for the price you are paying. The portion sizes are very generous. The only downside to Zia Marie is that dining here always takes several hours. Impossible to hop in and out in under an hour.

David Donovan

Nice atmosphere. Relaxed, but not too casual. Great selections on the menu and wine list. Food quality, presentation and service were what I like. Prices were surprisingly reasonable. Cant wait to return.

Bill McPherson

I am a huge fan of Zia Maries. It feels like home with the authentic Italian cooking accented by a service staff that cares and an owner in Bill who appreciates his clients. 5 Stars for Zias!

Nate Barnette

The Supreme pizza was amazing. I could taste the freshness of the veggies and the Italian sausage was awesome. My wife enjoyed the Margarita pizza. We just found our new pizza place!!

Dianne Bakke

The food was wonderful (both the scallop special and the veal parmesian). The waitress was friendly and cheerful. I did feel that the short shorts on the hostess was not appropriate.

Larry Engleman

The food was great. We went before the dinner rush and the service was very good. By the time we were done with our meal, the place was packed. Id recommend going before the rush.

Ruth Hall

Food is good, except.for.the bones in the lasagne! Bread wonderful. Cannoli is fabulous. But, the nightcap, sambuca, smelled.like rubbing alcohol.

Andy Bell

I almost dont want to let this secret out on how good it is. Chix beach is better because of this restaurant. Chix marsala is our favorite.

Patrick Acosta
